The story of an English genius written by RONALD BLYTHE
This film, reshown tonight on the exact anniversary of the artist's birth 200 years ago, evokes the poetry and the beauty of the scenes that Constable painted. It shows how his work also reflected the tensions in his own nature as he struggled to gain recognition for both himself and his art. He lived in a society that was shocked by his originality and indifferent to the freshness of his vision. Narrated by Marius Goring
Voice of Constable GARY BOND

A story of Flanders in eight parts by Gerard Walschap

While Thijs has been away in Brussels, Rosa has married Karel the local schoolteacher, expecting that he will take her away from Valley Farm. But she soon realises that Karel has only married her for the farm and that the man she really loves, Thijs, has resigned himself to taking care of her half-witted sister Lotte. When Thijs returns to work on the farm after military service, Rosa looks desperately for a means of escape.

Starring Hugo Metsers as Thijs with the English voices of Peter Marinker, Kate Binchy Angela Pleasence

A co-production by AVRO (Holland) and BRT (Belgium).
